During the Golden Age of Hollywood, actress/singer Jeanette MacDonald and actor Gene Raymond were touted as one of the happiest couples in show business. In recent years, many sources claimed their marriage was a sham. This three-volume series examines the truth about the Raymonds' relationship, often in their own words, from unpublished letters and various drafts of Jeanette's unpublished autobiography. Volume one covers their early years through their service during World War II, both overseas and on the home front.
